I bet they're using a 365-day "fixed" year, i.e. 10 years = 3650 days,
and have thus forgotten about leap years. I do financial software, and
leap years are always an important concern.
Probably adding 8 years is just as good (or 5 years). 10 years is
probably overkill. In a few years the domain registration fees might be
even lower, and thus one can save money by not prepaying for 10 years.
